Once upon a time in America these things were unthinkable. Right now, in America, these things are stoppable

THE THESIS: It’s time we flood the political zone with godly people. Never let politics into the Body of Christ, but absolutely move the Body of Christ into politics and government with people who seek to serve rather than be served. 

THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES: 

The Lord Jesus changed everything through service. We are called to serve rather than be served. If we can take the behaviors of discipled Christians into government, and surround them with godly people who will hold them to account, we can end this rot.

In Philadelphia:

A weekend of [so-called] “gun violence” in Philadelphia shows the incalculable, yet cruelly normal, level of trauma that residents must endure.

“Last year, more than 560 people were killed in homicides — the overwhelming majority by guns — and another 1,800 were wounded by bullets. It was the city’s most violent year ever. 

This year’s pace has been worse.

This summer alone was the deadliest on record. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day, nearly eight people on average were shot every day — a rate more than twice that of five years ago. More women and children were shot than ever before.”

And mothers like Kathi Camp, shattered but determined to keep her son, Diniar’s legacy alive, joins other moms working to persuade city leaders to stop the violence. Because it’s urgent. In the weeks since Diniar’s death, 300 more people have been shot.
